Tuberous Breasts with 280 Cc Overs - FR

WORTH IT$5,317
I'm 40, 5f6, 135lbs and recently just got implants on tuberous breasts: 280cc anatomical overs.
I am thrilled with the shape and the choice of going over the muscle (I am very active). I am so happy with my surgeon's work, so happy to have finally gotten this done! The pain has been minimal (just very tight.)
The one thing I am surprised about is the size. I really communicated with my PS on wanting a generous bosem (brought in photos of implants around 320 to 360ccs anatomical overs look.) Meaning a full 'C' look or a small 'D'. Full 'C' was my goal due to being athletic and not wanting them to get too much in the way!
He thinks they are perfect for my frame, but I suspect that once the swelling goes down I will be a small C or full B. Our agreed upon goal was to go as big as possible for me but that it still look natural. Preopt I was a 34A. I am impatient to see the overall result in 2 months but am not looking forward to them becoming smaller as I feel they are not as big as my 'dream boobs'. I think I just wanted a little extra ooomph!
Any thoughts or reassurance on how much they will go down in size?
Any other advice on limiting going too big on anatomical overs for tuberous breasts so I can understand his decision to use 280s and not more?
Another quick question: On my first visit, my PS suggested that we could first do implants and after complement them with fat injections. How common is this and what type of surgery recuperation does this imply?
Thanks!!

Hi i also have tuberous breasts and having 300cc hp overs and have the same stats as you. Can i ask what kind of incision you have?
December 14, 2016
I have 4 cm incisions under the nipple and they are healing really well. Seriously I think they will be undetectable in a year. Otherwise, just know that my surgeon ordered I believe 6 or 7 different types of anatomicals (sizes and projections) from 240 medium to 360 low/high projection and he liked the 280 medium projection the most which is what he therefore used for me (for a natural and harmonious look). They is probably why he was able to fit the implant through the incision. If I had gone big 320 etc... hey may have needed to insert from under boob incision type. Good luck and seriously you are going to be so happy! I went from no boobs to beautiful boobs. I'm loving it.

Thank you for replying! Thats fantastic and your breasts look really great and have put me at ease for my opp next week! I bet you are thats the part im most looking forward to just having them now

No problem. Just know that because of the tuberous part I did see 3 different surgeons to be sure of the approach and all three of them gave me the same response. Over the muscle, anatomical, and nipple incison. That was also helpful. It took me also that long to find the surgeon I chose as I wanted someone I was comfortable with and felt took into consideration what I wanted. It took me 40 years to finally do this so waiting a little longer to find the right dr was worth it! Good luck and don't hesitate to contact me with questions!

BTW I feel like the swelling has gone down a bit and my breasts are getting settled a bit. I took the time to measure myself and am feeling a bit better (although I do think I totally am feeling boob greed and still would have liked more boobage). I measure at this point a 34D (which seems totally ridiculous looking at my photos, or at least in my mind the look I have of what a D is!) according to Playtex and other Youtubers with formal bra measurements. I think I will finish off a C or small D. Make sure you really discuss the LOOK you want with photos and ask if it is POSSIBLE for you with your starting point, skin stretching, risk of complications, etc etc....

How do you know when you have tuberous breasts? I haven’t had a consult yet, waiting till I have about $5k in pocket first. I know I need a lift. In the fb group someone said I should find someone who specializes in tuberous breasts. Yes they have always looked like little torpedos to me but I thought tuberous the areola was raised, which mine are not.

Quick update 10 days later
Doing great and the boobs are feeling ok! A little sore and nipples feel strange but the shape is looking greast. These were full projection implants so I think that is helping! Had sort of a surpising moment when I tried on my old bras and realized that they almost all fit! (Ok I was using them just to have shape so they were big on me but still, they were all size Bs.) I am overall happy but wish they were a bit bigger (just a tad???) We'll see after the swelling goes down!

Still feeling quite disappointed for the size... been a bit emotional as wishing I felt 100 percent great about my breasts and I feel like the missing link what what I consider natural looking vs what my doctor considered natural. I am really a small C I believe so super bummed that my dream boobs will have to wait for quite some time. Obviously I am still happier as I actually have boobs now! But really wanted them to be bigger... fuller... more womanly... BTW wearing the contention band is going to be a feat for me over 2 months!!! That sucker is tight!
Many women feel that there implants are too small the first week after surgery. As your implants drop and fluff (settle in,) you'll hopefully feel a bit fuller and pleased with your size. This scenario is very common so try to be patient over the next month or so. When you're active, I think you'l be grateful for a slightly smaller size. Keep us posted as you continue to heal.
